Description: CHRIS JOHANSON, profiled by Bob Nickas, Corrina Peiplon, Julie Deamer, 2013 1st edition, Phaidon Press Limited, London, 11.68 x 10.25-inch very finely grained HB with embossed black and white lettering at front and embossed black lettering at spine; thick, polished DJ, 159 pp. + an unnumbered copyright page at the back and a page listing other artists profiled in the publisher's CONTEMPORARY ARTISTS Series; like new condition (HB and DJ). THe first paragraph on the front flap reads:: "CHRIS JOHANSON (b. 1968) is an American artist whose idiosyncratic paintings, drawing and sculptural installations address the contemporary human condition with sincerity and wit, placing hi in a long and distinguished lineage of artists who have attempted to portray not only objects, people and events, but also the ineffable fabric that binds them together. His installation for the 2002 Whitney Biennial, THIS IS A PICTURE ABOUT A PLACE WE LIVE CALLED EARTH THAT IS INSIDE THIS PLACE WE CALL SPACE, is as sprawling as the title, Featuring painted wooden cut-outs of figures, cars, freeways, buildings, planets and other forms arranged in a multi-storey vignette exploding with colour, (it) is no less than a model of the universe and humanity's inglorious place in it." Pages are thick, white and glossy. They look new and durable at age 11, and this guy's a very cool modern artist properly concerned about the well-being of our planet and its people. There are several copies on eBay. The best price for a very good one is $20.00 + $5.51 shipping. The best price for a brand new one accompanied by a stock cover photo is $46.97 with free shipping. It doesn't have a yellow sticker at the upper front DJ corner. My Buy-It-Now price of $20.00 includes shipping bubble-wrapped in a cardboard box via media mail, which takes around 7 days with tracking, less in California.
